Got another set of LED sidelights the other day so have those fitted! Was just checking under the bonnet to make sure my filter bracket was nice and tight still (and it was!)
Got some new windscreen wipers on the way too.
Bought a mini filter to go on the SAI pipe but un-decided if I'm going to fit it yet... :shrug:
Also found a new scratch on the drivers side front wing. [:@]

Crappy camera-phone pictures...

oh i see sock mod sounds different lol.
you can remove the pipe that attaches to the airbox and then fit the mini filter straight onto the pump thing probally wouldnt look so out of place then. the pipe comes off the same way you get it off the airbox by squeezing the two tab things.

I gave it a go tonight but its a bit hot down there and didn't seem to want to budge! I'm not sure it will fit but it would look good down there! Will give it a go at the weekend probably!

LED number plate lights look as if they are on their way out too... :censored:
 
theyve died quick i never did order mine glad i didnt now. i take it there starting to flicker my old led sidelights did that but my new ones have been good so far.
when i took that pipe off mine it gave me a bit of grief doing it,its just as difficult putting it back on.

Yeah, not had much luck with LED bulbs. This is about my 4th set of LED sidelights but first set of number plate bulbs. I just love the light you get from them. Any way of getting reliable LED bulbs or do they cost mega-bucks. I realise cheapo ebay jobbies aren't the best! :cartman:
